@auxinput Thanks for your reply. Yes, I agree that having a top mounted tweeter would help in having large sound-stage. I have seen many of the very high end speakers such as ones from Von Schweikert Audio use an additional tweeter (usually ribbon) mounted on the back side of the speaker for the ambience/sound-stage. Hence top mounted tweeter seems to be a very clever design alternative to using separate back-mounted one.
I just want to know all these clever designs are not causing any glaring issues in the overall sound of the speaker as having a clever design is one part but implementing them to have good sound is different story.
I agree on the pre-amp/amp part regarding soundstage. IMO your entire upstream chain is going to decide how how well these sound as every component has contribution to overall final sound of your system. Thankfully I have Bakoon Amp 13-R (doing dual duty of headphone amp and stereo integrated amp) which is supposed to have one of the best pairing with these speakers as Martin from SoundKaos has designed the speaekrs with this amp.
